Michael Paul Lewis
September 11, 1980 – November 10, 2025
Michael Paul Lewis, age 45, of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, passed away suddenly on November 10, 2025. He was born on September 11, 1980, in the Glendale community of Hattiesburg to the late Charles Ray and Susan Perrette Lewis.
Michael enjoyed cooking and spending time with friends. He always had a good time wherever he went and loved his dog, Rico.
Michael was a registered donor with MORA who gave the gift of life, leaving a lasting impact through his generosity.
He is survived by his loving sister, Amy Sue Lewis Ladner of Poplarville, Mississippi; his favorite brother-in-law, Stormy; and three nephews, Forrest Bufkin, Brodie Ladner, and Ryder Ladner.
Michael's passing leaves a deep void in the lives of his family and friends. We will miss him dearly, but his memory will endure in the love, laughter, and joy he shared with those around him.
Special thanks to Amy's cherished friends and family, Brother Tommy, and Mrs. Karen King, for their support during the loss of her brother.
